Its story

The building, also known as the Taş Kilise (Stone Church), Üç Horan or Church of the Holy Trinity, was built of stone in the second half of the 18th century and spreads over an area of about 1,335 square meters. In the restoration that began in 2013 and was completed in 2021, a new dome with a steel structure was added and the building was converted into a culture and arts center. Damaged in the earthquakes of 6 February 2023, the church was taken under repair again and from mid-2024 began serving once more as the Taşhoron Culture and Arts Center. Along with its exhibitions and events, it offers the chance to see one of the few historic church buildings still standing in the city.
